Winning Paddy
Three races, no wins, no places, and a most recent finish of seventh — Winning Paddy has not yet lived up to the optimism baked into its name. The eight-year-old has yet to trouble the judge in any of its outings, finishing seventh, eighth, and sixteenth across its three races so far, a sequence that tells a story of a horse still searching for its best.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trained by Alexandra Dunn out of West Buckland in Somerset, Winning Paddy raced as recently as yesterday, so the yard — sorry, so the team — are clearly keeping the horse busy and looking for an opportunity to turn things around. Dunn's yard has sent out two winners this season, which shows the stable is capable of getting horses to perform, even if Winning Paddy hasn't been one of them yet.
At eight years old, this is not a young horse with time stretching out ahead of it. That makes the search for a first win feel more pressing than it might for a younger animal. The finishing positions have actually been getting worse rather than better — sixteenth on the most recent run before yesterday is a long way back in the field — so there is work to do. Whether yesterday's outing bucked that trend remains to be seen.
